Recent Adventures
The Assault on the North Pole (Session 26): The
Feinting GOATs’ march into the far north tested the hard‑won
resilience they’d forged through hellish trials, leading them past
ancient runestones to the North Pole’s impenetrable barrier and into
the orbit of Gebo, a cheerfully dubious Tomte whose black‑market
village armed them with a counterfeit key and a mission to defeat the
monstrous Guardians. After witnessing the strange birth of a new Tomte
from a cracked rune stone, the party triggered the barrier’s defenses
and endured a brutal gauntlet against Grandfather Winter and his
titanic allies: the Evergreen Terror, Gingersnap, and General
Crack‑Jaw—ultimately claiming the runes needed to solve a circuit of
pedestal puzzles and unlock the path to Ded Moroz. Confronted by
Father Frost and his army, the GOATs fought through teleporting
troops, suppressive magic, and Krampus himself—banishing the demon
with relics from their earliest adventures—until Moroz, seeing the
battle’s futility, offered them conditional passage into Mysterra.
Revealing a colossal magma‑and‑earth elemental named Blorb and the
yawning entrance below, he warned they could bring only 42 magic items
without drawing Ka’s deadly attention. As the GOATs prepared to
descend, Lenti realized their own transformation required a different
path, parting ways with the party at the brink of the world
beneath.
Full Synopsis Here.
The First Titan (Session 27): The Feinting GOATs,
forced to cut their magic down to forty‑two items under Ded Moroz’s
truce and to part ways with their Shruman companion Lenti, crossed the
North Pole Gate and endured a disorienting seven‑day trek across
Mysterra’s frozen, starless north before reaching the village of
Skardvang. A tavern mishap led Korloth into a duel with the legendary
Böðvarr Bjarki, whose victory earned the party an invitation to his
giant‑sized cabin, where he revealed his past with a time‑lost
“Bug‑Lizard” named Enik and offered Enik’s clues only if they helped
him reclaim his sword from the resurrecting Titan Grindill. Solving
Enik’s color‑coded puzzles, they traveled through a Pylon to confront
and defeat the Ice Colossus, allowing Böðvarr to retrieve his blade
before sending the party onward via another configuration to a
scorching scrubland. There they encountered primitive Sleestaks and
finally met Enik himself—a brilliant, abrasive time traveler lamenting
his people’s decline—who agreed to calculate the Titans’ locations as
the GOATs settled into the strange comfort of his futuristic
cave.
Full Synopsis Here.
The Land of the Lost (Session 28): The party
reunited with a restored Lenti and the Dodds before Böðvarr Bjarki
exchanged legendary blades with Korloth and departed, after which Enik
revealed a sweeping cosmic history involving Abraxus, the Afanc, the
extinction of the Saurials, and the creation of Ryūjin, whose soul
remained trapped in an eternal dream. After confessing to slaughtering
his own kin to harvest their souls, Enik sent Akemi alone into
Ryūjin’s subconscious while the others journeyed to a distant Pylon,
surviving a brutal Krugel Orc ambush. Reaching Obojima, the group
navigated spirit‑world customs: Dodd earned adulthood through a
riddle, Bao Bao gained the Avatar of the Panda, and Cut‑Cut trained
with an ancient Mantis Spirit who revealed the Daimyo Ōmukade’s
weakness—human saliva. Cut‑Cut defeated the Daimyo with Bao Bao’s
covert healing, earning his aid against Ryūjin. In the ensuing
two‑plane battle, the GOATs crippled the Titan’s agility until he was
fully paralyzed, just as Akemi returned with his awakened soul; they
sealed Ryūjin within the Anubis Box alongside the freed Sleestak
spirits. As the dust settled, the Daimyo vanished without explanation,
and Enik finally tended to the wounded as the adventure drew to a
close.
